Active Facilitation: What Do Specialists Need To Know And How Might They Learn It?, D. Schifter, J. B. Lester
Active Facilitation: What Do Specialists Need To Know And How Might They Learn It?, D. Schifter, J. B. Lester
Journal of Mathematics and Science: Collaborative Explorations
Sustained, innovative professional development is now widely acknowledged as essential to the improvement of mathematics instruction in the nation’s schools. In recent years, this recognition has prompted the production of a variety of materials designed to support new teacher development programs. However, with the availability of such materials, serious concerns arise as to the kinds of knowledge required of professional development providers, often teachers who have been assigned Mathematics Specialist roles, and the means by which this knowledge is to be acquired. The authors of this paper address such questions in the context of one professional development seminar, Developing Mathematical …

Teacher-In-Residence Program At California State University, Chico, W. Fisher
Teacher-In-Residence Program At California State University, Chico, W. Fisher
Journal of Mathematics and Science: Collaborative Explorations
California State University, Chico has incorporated a Teacher-in-Residence program within the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. The purpose of this program is to have an elementary school teacher take a leave of absence from his or her classroom in order to work half—time in the Department of Mathematics at the University and half-time for the Chico Unified School District as a Mathematics Resource Specialist.

Welcome To The Electronic Iowa Science Teachers Journal, Michael P. Clough
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
Welcome to the electronic Iowa Science Teachers Journal (IST J)! Prior to 1994, members of the Iowa Science Teachers Section received a hard copy Iowa Science Teacher Journal as part of their membership. When running for the office of ISTS President, I wrote that my primary objective would be to revive IST J for members of ISTS. Towards that end, Jeff Weld and I put forth a proposal for creating an electronic IST J to the Iowa Academy of Science Board and they enthusiastically supported the proposal. We are pleased to serve ISTS and its members, and appreciate the support …
Lights, Camera, Inquiry!: Setting The Stage For A Year Of Inquiry, Brandon Schrauth
Lights, Camera, Inquiry!: Setting The Stage For A Year Of Inquiry, Brandon Schrauth
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
This article describes my own inquiry. As I work to prepare and start a new school year. I show how I consider the classroom environment to have a strong connection to the success of inquiry in the science classroom. I describe how I use the process of inquiry as a starting point and how I use specific actions to create an environment that pushes students to move beyond restating known information. Finally, I address the need for a teacher's own change and the importance for our own risk-taking behaviors. This article promotes National Science Education Content Standards A and B, …
Introducing Students To Polar And Non-Polar Interactions Through Inquiry, Jerrid Kruse
Introducing Students To Polar And Non-Polar Interactions Through Inquiry, Jerrid Kruse
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
Almost half of all chemistry teachers do not use inquiry in their classroom. Teachers cite classroom management, safety, and workload as reasons for not implementing inquiry techniques in their classroom (Deters, 2004). These teachers may resist laboratory-based inquiry finding it too daunting for themselves and their students. However, both students and teachers can progressively move to laboratory-based inquiry by first starting with less demanding science inquiry. This article describes an inquiry atmosphere created in a discussion classroom setting where students only minimally interact with materials. Students investigate macroscopic properties of water and hexane at their desks and the teacher performs …

A Penny Saved Is A Penny Learned!, Daniel Bergman
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
This article discusses modifying a specific activity so that it promotes scientific inquiry, cooperative learning, accurate and explicit nature of science understanding, and appropriate assessment. It features a brief description of the original "cookbook" activity and a subsequent adaptation to create an inquiry-based lesson. The activity uses ordinary pennies to teach fundamental concepts such as density and indirect measurements. Extension activities for chemistry students could feature chemical reactions and metal activities. This article promotes National Science Education Content Standards A, B, and G, and Iowa Teaching Standards 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and …

Days Of Our Spineless Lives: A Never Ending Saga, Lori Ihrig
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
This activity is an interdisciplinary method for engaging students in biological investigations through working with living aquatic invertebrates. The learning cycle begins with students conducting fieldwork to collect aquatic invertebrates. Students then think and propose ideas to create an observation record that they can use to study their organisms in the classroom. Finally, through the use of well-phrased questions along with wait-time, positive nonverbal responses, and non-judgmental responses, the teacher is an ally working with students in inquiry to generate the requirements of a final project. This article promotes National Science Education Content Standards, A, C, and F, and Iowa …
Summer Soil Temperatures On Algific Talus Slopes In Northeast Iowa, Tom R. Cottrell, Kyle S. Strode
Summer Soil Temperatures On Algific Talus Slopes In Northeast Iowa, Tom R. Cottrell, Kyle S. Strode
Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS
Soil temperatures at 15 cm depth were recorded on a single occasion at multiple grid points on two algific talus slopes during the summer of 1999. To represent and compare soil temperatures over a wider area, soil temperatures were measured (less intensively) at five other algific slopes and three non-algific forested slopes. Algific slopes appear to have greater variation in soil temperatures than non-algific sites. Spatial variation in algific slope soil temperatures ranged from 4-25°C. During the 10 day sample period temporal variation in air temperature at a nearby weather station had a similar range. Isotherm plots reveal a heterogeneous …

Hydrogeology Of Hanging Bog State Preserve: The Role Of Hillside Seeps In Draining The Iowan Surface, William L. Niemann
Hydrogeology Of Hanging Bog State Preserve: The Role Of Hillside Seeps In Draining The Iowan Surface, William L. Niemann
Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS
Along the margin of the Cedar River Valley, groundwater discharges from eroded and weathered glacial materials of the Iowan Surface to modern alluvial deposits of the valley floor. Hanging Bog State Preserve, located along this topographic, geologic, and hydrologic boundary, represents one such groundwater discharge location, in the form of a perennial hillside seep. Based on detailed monitoring of surface water and groundwater levels within the preserve for a one-year period, it is shown that a significant quantity of groundwater, collected from a disproportionately large recharge area, is funneled to the valley wall at this site and subsequently carried to …
